After boarding a ship to initiate an anti-mining protest last year, Greenpeace could be removed from the UN deep-sea mining body.
The boarded vessel, owned by The Metals Company, was carrying out research in the Pacific's Clarion-Clipperton Zone.
The company claims the actions disrupted research and was dangerous.
The UN's International Seabed Authority 29th council meeting is underway this week in Kingston, Jamaica, where governments will discuss the protest that Greenpeace took part in.
NRZ Pacific's Caleb Fotheringham spoke with Louisa Casson who heads Greenpeace's International -- Stop Deep Sea Mining campaign, about the protest.
